Needle rests on soft pad to protect flux from evaporation. I added second thick pad to last holder planning to cut it to much thinner layer, but I liked additional weight so leaved it as is.

Syringe settles down reliably after being dropped from that position.

Very pretty.

Personally, I just keep my flux in a bottle:

But your syringe holder is very pretty.

Although a bottle like that will work well on the more liquid fluxes, it won't work well if at all for the thicker 'grease' like fluxes or solder paste...

To the OP, nice holder if you are the organized type, my syringe just gets tossed on a plastic tray at the back of the desk...

I expected comments if any like "heh, you wasted your time!" but received ones have much more pleasant form ;). Thank you for appreciation.

I'm not the organized person at all. My tray is a mess, so I'd like to have flux right near the iron at hand not to spend a second searching for it and place it back without attention to that motion.
